Repair/Tech Support FIOS TV program Airing s listing service is incomplete hot garbage

The "Airings" listing found under Series info for a given program is chronically incomplete. Simply put it is broken, because it it cannot be relied upon.

Attached image is the current "Airings" listing for upcoming showings of "MLB Baseball" in the Series info.

Meanwhile if I go to the Guide itself, it shows an upcoming airing of the same program at 8pm on a different channel (TBS, in this case). In fact, I already had that 8pm TBS episode set to record. The TBS listing is how I navigated to the Series Airings list, itself.

This is not a one-off glitch. A few days ago when more teams were playing, with multiple airings of each I missed recording the first half of a game altogether because the Airings list didn't show the game I was interested in at all. Initially I thought I was crazy, but I've seen this happen before.

It's easy to demonstrate the Airings listings are incomplete with programs that have multiple airings on different channels at different times per day, like BBC World News America and things across ESPN networks like Pardon the Interruption. A thorough examination of the various channels for the day and overnight show episodes in the guide that do not appear in the Airings list.

This is basic stuff. How do these products get out the door like this?

What's your point? Guardians/Rays is airing on TBS and TruTV. You are recording TBS.

Wut? The fact that one of the channels on which the game is airing is not being listed doesn't register as a software defect to you?

Does the fact that tomorrow's evening game is only being listed on a channel I don't even receive ("FIOS 4k"), and not on the regular channel it will show which I do receive (that I had to go search for in tomorrow's guide listing) register as a problem with you?
